NOHRD Luxury Indoor Exercise Bike V2

The NOHRD Luxury Indoor Exercise Bike V2 is a wooden-framed indoor bike, hand-made in Nordhorn, Germany, with a touchscreen built into the handlebar. A planetary gear turns a 5.5 kg flywheel at 1:8, so the wheel spins faster than the cranks, and an eddy current brake sets the resistance. Resistance turns continuously on a dial at the front right of the frame, and you never step between numbered levels. The bike stands on less than a square meter of floor and is rated to 200 kg (441 lb). Its frame comes in six woods: Shadow, Oak, Vintage, Club, Cherry and Walnut.

The handlebar touchscreen pairs over Bluetooth (FTMS) with NOHRD Connect and with virtual riding apps.

Bike V2 Drivetrain

How it works

An eddy current brake works magnetically across a gap, and a planetary gear sits between the cranks and the 5.5 kg wheel.

Eddy Current Brake

An eddy current brake slows the flywheel magnetically, without a pad or a belt contacting it anywhere. There is no friction surface to wear down and no felt pad to replace as a consumable. Resistance is continuously adjustable through the dial at the front right of the frame, so you turn into more load and turn back out of it in a single movement mid-ride.

Wear-free braking

A 5.5 kg Flywheel Geared 1:8

The flywheel weighs 5.5 kg and sits behind a planetary gear running a drive ratio of 1:8. The gearing lets a light wheel behave like a heavy one, because the wheel is spinning several times faster than the cranks that drive it. The practical result is a bike that keeps turning smoothly through the dead spot at the top and bottom of each pedal stroke.

1:8 drive ratio

Handlebar Touchscreen

The touchscreen is embedded in the handlebar itself, with no post clamped in front of it and no bracket to knock loose. It shows training data you can customize, and it connects over Bluetooth using the FTMS fitness machine protocol.

USB Power Bank

The V2 runs from a power connection at the console or from a USB power bank. The power bank widens where the bike can live, out to a room with no socket on the right wall.

How to use it

Contact points

Hand Positions on the Bar

The handlebar is shaped to be held in more than one way: upright with the hands on top for a steady spin, and lower and further forward for a harder effort out of the saddle. The saddle sits on a universal bracket with 30 degrees of saddle angle available. Handlebar and saddle each lock at their own height, with about 21 cm of saddle travel for riders 160 to 200 cm tall.

The wood

The Wood Frame

On the Oak bike the wood is solid oak over a steel frame, the Cherry and Walnut bikes carry real-wood veneer, and the wood you pick changes nothing else about the bike.

The apps

Apps on the Handlebar Screen

NOHRD Connect brings all NOHRD equipment together in one app. Beyond that, the V2 talks to ZWIFT, BKOOL and Rouvy over Bluetooth for virtual courses, group rides and structured interval sessions. A phone or tablet running a third-party app adds to the console without replacing it.

How it compares

Frame length and console separate the Bike V2 from the Bike Pro. They share the drivetrain and the 200 kg rating, so the choice is frame length, the console and the number of packages.

Frequently asked questions

It works through a planetary gear and an eddy current brake, adjusted continuously on a dial at the front right of the frame.

It is mainly a low-impact cardio and endurance machine, with leg muscular endurance next, then core and stability, coordination, body control and posture, and mobility.

It measures 117 x 113 x 60 cm on a footprint of about 0.44 square meters, enough for a bedroom corner or a clinic waiting area, and its rating covers riders to 200 kg (441 lb). Getting on and off takes a little space behind and to the side.

It works with NOHRD Connect, ZWIFT, BKOOL and Rouvy over Bluetooth. NOHRD Connect is NOHRD's own app for all its equipment, and the other three are virtual riding and structured training platforms. One exception applies: the NOHRD Bike app is not currently compatible with the Samsung S10 and S20.

No, the V2 ships in two packages, and one person assembles it where it will be ridden in up to 45 minutes. At 60 kg it is a two-person lift once built, and rubber wheels at the base roll it to a new spot.

The V2 is 117 cm long, 60 kg and two packages, with a touchscreen set into the handlebar and the option of a USB power bank. The Bike Pro is 153 cm long, 62 kg and three packages, with a 14 in. handlebar touchscreen, a seat height range of 90 to 112 cm and a power connection required.

Yes, at any point after delivery. The universal bracket takes the Brooks leather saddle or the comfort saddle in place of the racing saddle the bike arrives with, and a rider with an inside leg over 100 cm fits the saddle mount XL to the saddle arch for a seat height up to 120 cm. All three are retrofits and none of them is an assembly job.

The bottle holder, the seat back and the toe clips with straps all fit it. The seat back is a saddle extension that suits riding with a laptop tray, and with toe clips fitted you free your feet before stepping off.

Retighten the crank bolts every 10 hours of riding, and check the saddle and handlebar locks before each ride. Under intensive use, inspect the locks, the pedals and the frame fasteners at least every three months. Spare parts are available individually, so a worn piece is replaced without replacing the bike, and the NOHRD Care Set keeps the wood in condition.

NOHRD covers it for one year from the date of initial shipment, for private and commercial use, and registering it within the first year extends the cover to two years on all components, wooden components included.
